Loads of fun, it's like Hotline Miami but with MOBA powers or something. I can totally see this being a full game someday. Y'all did a great job, you should all be very proud!
One part of feedback is that it was a bit confusing at the beginning, getting a bunch of hints that I may be able to "yeet a door" or something, despite not having unlocked that friend yet. I'd love some more visual clarity regarding what is and isn't a buddy power - and what the individual powers do. I'm still not quite sure what the cocaine did... Maybe it increased my speed? But then it should've been speed, surely?
Hey, thanks for the kind words and in-depth feedback !
We originally wanted to show the interaction prompts for the player to build expectations of what they will be able to do when they unlock a new buddy, but that might not have been clear enough !
Yep, cocaine increases your speed, but once again, we lacked time to add visual feedbacks for the player haha
Thanks for your comment :)
Damn this was actually pretty fun! The controls were nice and smooth not restricting the gameplay, I was able to zoom through like a bullet wiping every enemy out of the level pretty quickly, great job!
Hey, thanks !
We were trying really hard to hit that gameplay variety that allows you to be sneaky or ballsy, so your comment means a lot, thanks ! :D
COOOOOOOL ;P
The music and visuals make this game feel pretty good !
Thank you for the kind words :)
This game is actually pretty fun. I wish there were more levels. Cause if you have all abilities you can only replay.
Thanks a lot ! Yeah, we originally planned to have more levels, but we were short on time :D
looks and feels really well made! great stuff, and i especially enjoyed the music a lot :)
Thanks ! :)
Great work!! love the level design and the music. Keep it up!!
Thanks ! :)
Musicians are credited on the itch page if you are interested :)
Chill dudes, both of them :D
Awesome for a game jam. Looks great, sounds great, and the gameplay is also really good.
Hey, thanks, we really put our hearts into it ! :)
Funny game) But, when I restarted the level after death, I was left alone…
Thanks ! That's a bug we did not know about, I'll look into this after the jam, thanks for the heads up :)
